IAN HUNTER - It Ain't Easy When You Fall lyrics
rate me(Ian Hunter)
You used to float just like a boat upon the tide
You used to run when things were done you used to hide
You talk of ships you talk of boats you talk of games
And now you're down you ain't around its such a shame
Cause you got something to give
Something to hold onto
Why don't you live
And you just forget about fixing up fate
Maybe you'd stop pick yourself up
Now its too late Oh
It ain't easy when you fall
It ain't easy when you fall
It ain't easy when you fall
No it ain't no good at all
You didn't know this world ain't slow you gotta move
You made no sound I watched you drown I watched you loose
Your loneliness you knew it best but its a drag
Cause in the end I lost a friend I feel so sad
Cause you had something to give
Something to hold onto
Why did you live
If you just forgot about fixing up fate
You'd be here you'd be near
Now it's too late Oh
It ain't easy when you fall
It ain't easy when you fall
It ain't easy when you fall
No it ain't no good at all
Oh-oh hey
It ain't easy when you fall
(fade)
<poem at the end>
Where do you go
When there's no where to run
When the time isn't right
And there's things to be done
When you're trapped halfway up
You don't wanna go back
So you keep going on
Compromising the lack (???)
And you see the green fields
As you're traveling by
And you look at the things
You've forgotten to try
And you wish you were young
And you wish you were old
The song has been sung
And the stories' been told
And you thought you were different
But what did that mean?
So you tricked yourself tryin'
Life's still unseen
As it is
As it was
As it always will be
And you find out it all (???)
It was never too clear (??? this line isn't too clear either)
See it never was easy to live with a head
So I kept to the back room
And I lived there instead
What comes to the front room
Is only for ‘friends'
I have a bay window
But that's where it ends
And it's here I see pictures
And my madness is clear
And there's no longer logic
So therefore no fear
I'm almost dead with uncontrollable light
Sometimes when I've written a song
It's alright
